The Russian-American Company in Valparaíso
score:2
Accepted answer
These Russians probably weren't big news: numerous Russian voyages had already stopped in Chile. By 1827 Talcahuano was "a resting-place indicated in the Admiralty instructions". N. A. Ivashintsov in Russian Round-the-World Voyages, 1803-1849 indicates that:
- the Rurik spent a month at Talcahuano in 1816
- the Predpriiatie spent six weeks at Talcahuano in 1824
- the Krotkii spent ten days at Valparaiso in 1827
- the Moller spent two weeks at Valparaiso in 1827
- the Seniavin spent two weeks at Valparaiso in 1827
